(or maybe the bike is getting hotter.) i asked my dealer about this situation last summer and at that time they said they had no previous reports of this occuring. i have not "puked coolant" that i know of, but since the bike does have an overflow reservoir i am not sure that it has not occured. i also have not stopped or watched the highway behind me as this was occuring. i was able to get a picture of the bike near the red zone at about 45 mph, but i was not able to get any at the red zone at that speed because the day that i tried was also one of the days that my speedometer was sticking. since the bike was showing 50 mph while stoppped - according to the speedo - it seemed pointless to try to take a picture. i have never tried to get the bike to oh, a my desire is (was?) to own this bike for many years and many miles. i am very disappointed that honda refuses to acknowlegde the problem. the survey asked me if i contacted honda and i answered yes. the reality is that i tried last summer and got tired of waiting on the phone - so i did contact honda, but never actually spoke to a human being. there have been numerous reports of this occuring to other owners, so i have not tried again. i did fill out a report on this site last summer, but i do not see it posted.*ak.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1HFSC470X1A.
